David Schwartz, Ripple’s Chief Technology Officer, has reignited discussions around XRP’s role in global finance with recent remarks emphasizing the asset’s potential to become a “settlement system of high value.” His comments, shared in a video clip circulating on social media, align with Ripple’s broader ambition to revolutionize cross-border payments.
In the video, Schwartz highlighted Ripple’s focus on building liquidity and attracting major players. He said the goal is to create “easy ways to get money in and out” while fostering a system with “lots of liquidity for cross-currency and cross-border payments.” His vision reflects Ripple’s ongoing strategy to position XRP as a cornerstone for efficient global transactions.
Institutional Momentum: Ripple’s Q3 2024 Markets Report
Schwartz’s comments arrive alongside Ripple’s Q3 2024 Markets Report, which underscores the growing interest in XRP among institutional investors.
According to the report, there has been a notable uptick in institutional adoption, with firms such as Bitwise Invest, Canary Funds, and 21Shares filing for XRP-related exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
Grayscale Investments has also taken significant steps by launching an XRP Trust and seeking approval to convert its multi-asset fund into an ETF.
These developments signal increasing confidence in XRP as an investable asset and a critical tool for facilitating global liquidity. Ripple’s advancements in regulatory clarity—particularly its legal victory against the SEC earlier this year—have likely played a key role in accelerating institutional interest.

Amelie’s Bold Interpretation
Crypto influencer Amelie shared Schwartz’s comments on X, suggesting that XRP’s creation was purposefully aligned with a high valuation. While she did not substantiate her claim that XRP was “created for $10,000,” her tweet reflects the optimism held by many XRP enthusiasts about the token’s long-term potential.
Amelie’s statement adds a speculative layer to the discussion. Proponents of such valuations often point to XRP’s scalability, low transaction costs, and utility in On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) solutions. However, skeptics caution that such figures are aspirational and emphasize the importance of grounded market analysis.
Ripple’s Strategic Partnerships and Expansion
Ripple continues to expand its network of institutional partnerships. The company has been working with banks, payment providers, and even central banks to demonstrate XRP’s capability as a bridge currency. Its ODL solution has been instrumental in reducing transaction times and costs, further solidifying XRP’s position as a practical tool for international settlements.
Additionally, Ripple’s focus on regulatory compliance ensures that XRP is well-positioned to thrive in an evolving financial ecosystem. This commitment to compliance has helped Ripple foster relationships with key stakeholders and reinforce trust in its solutions.
While speculative price predictions remain divisive, Schwartz’s comments and Ripple’s recent achievements underscore the company’s commitment to advancing XRP as a transformative asset in the financial sector.
